EasyRead transforms PDFs and EPUBs into a personalized reading experience designed for people who struggle with focus, distraction, and retention. Every feature is grounded in cognitive science research.
80%
retention with active recall vs 34% with passive re-reading
19.8%
faster reading fluency with Lexend font vs Times New Roman
2x
better retention when you summarize vs just highlight
Not gimmicks. These are techniques validated by cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and ADHD reading comprehension studies.
Bold the first letters of each word to create visual anchors that guide your eyes across the page faster.
Research shows letter and word spacing matters more than font choice. Fine-tune spacing to reduce cognitive load.
Dims everything except the paragraph you're reading. Eliminates visual distraction for ADHD readers.
Alternating pastel backgrounds per sentence give your eyes a clear boundary for each idea.
Periodic prompts ask "Can you recall the last section?" A 2024 study proved this eliminates the ADHD comprehension gap.
At each chapter end, write a summary in your own words. Active recall retains 80% vs 34% for passive reading.
Built-in 10-25 minute reading sessions with breaks. Short bursts work best for ADHD brains.
Read along while listening. Multimodal input (seeing + hearing) improves comprehension and engagement.
Three steps. No account required. Everything stays in your browser.
Drop a PDF or EPUB file. We extract the text right in your browser -- nothing gets uploaded to any server.
Choose your font, adjust spacing, enable bionic reading, pick a theme. Every setting is backed by reading science.
Focus checks, recall prompts, and a Pomodoro timer help you actually remember what you read -- not just consume it.
Passive consumption = shallow encoding. Robert Bjork's research proves memory requires effort at encoding. When reading feels easy, your brain confuses familiarity with learning.
No retrieval practice = no retention. Students who self-test retain 80% vs 34% who just re-read (Roediger & Karpicke, 2006). Audiobooks and passive reading give you zero retrieval practice.
ADHD working memory is smaller. When cognitive load exceeds the buffer, information gets dropped before reaching long-term storage. Adjustable spacing and simplified presentation reduce that load.
Mind-wandering without awareness. A 2024 study found that periodic metacognitive prompts eliminated the comprehension gap between ADHD and non-ADHD readers entirely.
